Womens Clubs
Industry Declared Better Equipped
For Mobilization Now Than 10 Years Ago
Industry is infinitely better
equipped to do a good job of mo
bilization than it was 10 years ago,
J. Spencer Love, textile industrial
ist and former bureau chief for
textiles for the War Production
Board, declared yesterday.
In a luncheon address before
the Woman’s National Democratic
Club, Mr. Love, chairman of the
board of directors for Burlington
Mills, Inc., cited greater produc
tion since World War II which has
allowed greater use of capital for
expansion as one reason why in
dustry is better able to handle the
Job
“In the present situation,” Mr
Love declared, “with greater pro
ductivity since the war, it is not
likely that Government requests
N will take more than 15 to.20 per
cent of the total production.”
The speaker, whose subject was
"The Relationship Between In
dustry and the War Effort.”
pointed out that industry today is
producing a “record amount” of
goods of all types. Up to now it
has supplied all the mobilization
requirements without serious
shortages of any kind, he added
Mr. Love cited, however, the
businessmen’s fear that this high
rate of productivity without
shortages also could act as a
boomerang, particularly if mobili
zation should suddenly end. re
sulting in Government requested
material being thrown back on
the civilian market. With no con
sumer demands to take up the
surplus, Mr. Love anticipated
there would be “some unemploy
ment” during the adjustment pe
riod.
The businessmen are also con
cerned over*controls and labor
problems, Mr. LoVe declared.
“They realize controls are
wise,” he said, “but they hope
the people will realize that con
trols will not do the job perma
nently—that they are only tem
porary.” Mr. Love further ex
pressed the hope that “Congress
won’t let the socialists and col
lectivists come in and use con
trols to smother free enterprise.”
Looking at the relationship of
industry to the war effort as
affected by labor, Mr. Love said
the businessmen “know you can’t
have stabilization if the price of
labor goes up.”
“If you’re going to have a con
tinuing spiral in labor, you will
have a continuing spiral in prices,”
he said, adding that the only way
to stop the spiral is to have “real
collective bargaining."
Mrs. Frank C. Pace, jr., program
chairman, introduced Mr. Love,
and Mrs. Fred Morrison, president
of the club, opened the meeting.
